The link above will allow you to download an Excel spreadsheet I developed over the years of planning my rides. For me, one fourth of the fun of a ride is planning it. During the winter I get to dream and research places I would like to go then plan the trip itself. This spreadsheet allows:
- Set start date then the sheet will track how many days you have traveled
- llow you to indicated waypoints and stopping points
- Calculates the total days to that point and the day of the week. The day of the week comes in handy when determining when businesses, tours, etc. will be open.
- Use conditional formatting to color alternate rows
- Use conditional formatting to color rows based on camping, mooching, motels
- Calculates the total days of camping, freeloading, and motels
- Calculates total costs for fuel, motels, camping, food, and refreshments
- Calculates time (given my own formula) for daily miles based on estimated average speed
